The UAE is an extremely respectable country with Muslim background. Drinking alcohol out in the open and not wearing your shirt in public are two of the main sins here and a huge mark of disrespect. However, many people are led to believe that Dubai’s nightlife is non-existent due to stricter rules than most places in the west.
Let us show you right now how far wrong those people are! So what is nightlife like in Dubai?
First of all, Dubai proves to us all that cities can be clean and respectful and still enjoy a good nightlife; It’s just that the west don’t seem to have mastered this yet.
Dubai continues setting the bar high with everything it does. It’s not just nightclubs and posh hotel lobby bars that brings Dubai to life at night though; some of the most famous artists around the world visit on a weekly basis, from 50 Cent to David Guetta.
Rooftop bars at the best luxury hotels, nightclubs and mega beach discotheques are just to name a few of the many fantastic places Dubai has to offer people looking for a vibrant nightlife.
Check out the short video below from DubaiNight.com which will give you a taste of what’s on offer when out at night in Dubai.
Information on Dubai Nightlife
The drinking age in Dubai is 21 and there is a strict policy on this so make sure you don’t forget to bring out your ID.
Furthermore, due to various licencing laws, alcohol is only allowed in certain premises. This will be either inside hotels or clubs and there will be no drinking off premises or taking anything out into the streets.
Police in Dubai will not tolerate drunk and disorderly behaviour so please make sure you conduct yourself in the best possible manner whilst also having a great time. Tens of thousands of people manage to do this every week so we are sure you can too!
Make sure you grab a cab at the end of the night to prevent you banging against the walls on your walk home and being stopped by police!
What Days are Nightclubs Open in Dubai?
The regular working week in the UAE starts on a Sunday and ends on a Thursday. Thus, Thursday’s are Dubai’s version of other countries’ Fridays. Due to this, most clubs open their doors or are at their busiest on Thursdays and Fridays.
A lot of hotels and bars in Dubai host ladies nights and this seems to be a growing thing around the UAE hotspot. Ladies nights are usually hosted on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and most of the time the venues offer free food and drinks!
What Time do Nightclubs Open in Dubai?
Most nightclubs in Dubai open up around 9pm and close their doors at 3am. There is a ban on clubs staying open beyond 3am in Dubai but certain places hold a special licence for event nights and do open until 4am.
What is the Dress Code in Dubai Nightclubs?
Dress codes in Dubai nightclubs are like most other cities. People will be turned away at the door for turning up in jeans or shorts. Women are ok wearing dresses and mini-skirts (but not too mini), and men are expected to dress smart but can be casual too.
There is a strict policy on large groups trying to enter hotel bars or nightclubs in Dubai so make sure you break off into couples. Do not be surprised to be turned away for being loud and inappropriate before entering the premises.
Where to go Clubbing in Dubai?
Next we take a look at where you can enjoy Dubai’s nightlife. Most hotels have fantastic bars and rooftop terraces to enjoy Dubai club nights which we will take a look at. Then, we have Madinat Jumeirah, Jumeirah Beach, Dubai Marina and Nasimi Beach.

Jump on a Dhow Cruise
It’s a stunning idea to flow in a vessel coupled with the gentle waves of the water underneath. Dhows were originally attributed to the fishermen and sailors, but over the years have become tourist friendly.
The royal boats, mesmerising lights, and the sophisticated interiors are a certain boost to your nightlife in Dubai. Often all these are accompanied by live music and dance shows on the Dhow itself.
These Dhows are available from two locations; Dubai Marina and Dubai Creek. These two locations itself are referred to as Paradise of the Nation and a water journey across them will fill your heart with pleasure.
What better way to see Dubai at night than from the water? Enjoy the sights as you nibble contemporary Arabian dishes on the vessel.

The Burj Khalifa
Burj Khalifa in Dubai offers one of the best views of the sunset in the world. When you are in Dubai for your next vacation, do not forget to head here for sunset.
Reach the bottom of the tower a few minutes before the sun goes down and watch the sun disappear from the horizon. Then, take the lift and reach to the top of the tower within a few minutes to experience the second sunset of the day.
For a better nightlife experience, stand at the top of Burj Khalifa for the next one or two hours and you will see how this busy city transits itself from the day time to the night time. Plug into your earphones and enjoy the game of light that the city plays after the sun sleeps over the horizon.
The tower remains open on all seven days a week. On Thursday and Friday, the tower remains open from 10 am to 12am for tourists to enjoy the prolonged nightlife.
On all other days, the tower remains accessible from 10am to 10pm. A view of the sun setting from the top of Burj Khalifa will cost you in the region of 250AED per person.
Desert Safari in Dubai
A wonderful idea for those who are not into parties, you can dive into a desert safari. The United Arab Emirates has a major portion of deserts, so why not utilise that to experience something different.
A starry night, brightly burning bonfire, and traditional dishes are enough to set your mood for the safari. If you are planning this for a group of people, then it is certain enjoyment will know no limit.
You can plan for a sessions like belly dancing, wild music or mimicry to make this night more memorable. Set up camp and you are done for the night. Crumble inside the small tents and enjoy this once in life experience.
Desert Safari’s generally run from 4pm to 9am. The cost for the safari for a couple is approximately AED 130 depending on tour operator, which is within the affordable limit of most tourists.
Best Places to Stay for Dubai Nightlife
You must be on your toes to save some extra bucks during your trip to Dubai. The best way to do that is to book your hotel near to those places where you want to hang out. Cost and time of transportation can be cut down in this way.
In my opinion, the best place in Dubai for nightlife is Dubai Marina. This tourist-centric district is situated between the Jumeirah and the Palm and is dotted with vibrant spots for nightlife enjoyment.

Dubai Nightlife During Ramadan
During the month of Ramadan, the city of Dubai and its people follow some strict norms. Apart from prayer timings, the people in the city also obey rules regarding working hours. Schools, colleges and offices mostly remain closed and people often restrict themselves from moving out during the day time.
A short while ago bars and nightclubs used to remain closed throughout Ramadan, but now the government has become lenient and keeping the viewpoint of tourists in mind. Shops and bars are allowed to open their windows after sunset.
The music in clubs and bars are not allowed to be too loud. Furthermore, bars have to take special care when choosing songs that are being played at this time.
A recent regulation has been issued, which says restaurants are allowed to serve food to the non-fasters. The restaurants open after sun sets and are allowed to serve customers till midnight.
Since nightlife in Dubai does not revolve only around bars and restaurants, we have tried to put up here how other nocturnal attractions modify themselves in Dubai during the month of Ramadan.
The beaches in Dubai remain low on people count to both tourists and locals. Other activities like horse riding and desert safari all remain open for tourists. Shopping malls remain mostly open after sunset. So, during the evenings you have no worries about finding entertainment.
If you have on board dinner in mind, even then there is no worry of backing up. Many cruises allow dinner on board, but there are some restrictions on the food that you will be informed beforehand.
Read this guide for more about visiting Dubai during Ramadan.
